Description

Summary

The investigation area was in front of delta Po river (44°25-italian coastN, italian coast-13°40E). The autumn oceanographic cruise was conducted over 4 legs, with the following calendar: Phase 1: 24/09-28/09, collected 57 CTD profiles Phase 2: 30/09-02/10, collected 69 CTD profiles, 31 stations with biogeochemical sampling Phase 3: 23/10-24/10, collected 42 CTD profiles Phase 4: 05/11-06/11, collected 20 CTD profiles CTD data were collected with SBE 911 Plus probe with pressure, temperature, conductivity and dissolved oxygen sensors. This dataset consists of water column measurements (salinity, waveband radiance and irradiance, temperature, dissolved oxygen, transmittance and attenuance and raw fluorometer) collected during the Phase 2 of the Italian PRISMA Programme.
